The Kinect SDK is a developer toolkit for developing applications. This SDK provides a fantastic interface to interact with Kinect programmatically. The Kinect for Windows SDK beta includes drivers that interact with H/W and provides an interface to interact with device, APIs for interacting with Camera, Sensors, microphone and Motor. The SDK provides capabilities to the developers who build applications with C#, VB or C++ with Visual Studio 2010 which is running on Windows 7. I started developing application with Kinect SDK almost 2 months back, from the day when I received my Kinect Device. I tweeted about my first application over here and I am still learning about the Kinect SDK API’s and how to use them in different ways. Let’s share the learning over here. I will keep posting as step by step to allow you to understand the API’s and get inside Kinect development. I will write a series of post where I will discuss about fundamentals of Kinect SDK API and developing Application using it and yes Step by Step and obviously with Demo Project

Dynamically set control visibility inside ItemTemplate’s of GridView using Bind Expression
GridView TemplateField allow us to specify custom controls, multiple fields and Html using a custom template. TemplateField allows us to define a completely customized template for GridView Column. We can bind the data with in template control using binding expression. ASP.NET provides number of ways to take control over the template control. In this post I am going to discuss how we can set template control visibility based on certain condition which depends on the data source data. For example, imagine you have a link button within template field. You want to set visibility if that control based on the some value of your data source.

Install a shared Assembly to the GAC as post build event from Visual Studio
The Global Assembly Cache (GAC) is a Cache for globally available Assemblies. Most of the shared assemblies are installed inside GAC to shared across different applications. The Global Assembly Cache tool (Gacutil.exe) allow us to manipulate the contents of the global assembly cache along with install and un-install Assembly. During the development, we generally take help of gacutil from command prompt to install or uninstall assemblies into or from GAC. This is a repetitive process, every time you made some changes in your library you might need to deploy it into the GAC. Visual Studio has a nice feature called Pre-Build and Post-Build events. Using these events we execute some specific commands before or after the build. In this post I am going to show you how we can configure the post build event to deploy an Assembly to GAC.

Not able to view all the running Worker Process in Visual Studio – Process Attach Window – Resolution
This might be a very simple and known to most of us, but I found it as a query in a discussion forum of one of my article “Debug your ASP.NET Application while Hosted on IIS” which was published at Code Project . Question was regarding list of worker processes in “Process Attach window” of Visual studio. Though all the sites are running properly on IIS, still he was not able to view any processes in “Attach Process Window” while trying to attach a process from Visual Studio.
Tracking Out of Scope Objects using DataTips while debugging in Visual Studio 2010
Visual Studio 2010 introduced a nice new “DataTip pinning” features that enable you to better track of variable and expression while debugging. I am sure by this time you must be knowing what is “Data Tips” and different features of it. In In this Post I am going to share a small tip which talks about tracking some out of scope object using DataTips while debugging.

Multiple URL Binding with IIS Express
IIS Express is a lightweight, self-contained version of IIS and optimized for developers. IIS Express provides the power of IIS7.x and makes it very easy to develop and test web applications. Visual Studio 2010 SP1 provides complete integration with IIS Express. In one of my previous post I discussed How you can Run “IIS Express” and “Cassini” simultaneously in Visual Studio 2010 SP1. In this post I am going to discuss about how you can bind multiple URL’s for a single Web Application with IIS Express.

Using ASP.NET 4.0 Chart Control With New Tooling Support for SQL Server CE 4.0 in VS 2010 SP1 and Entity Model
In this post I’m going to talk about how we can use ASP.NET 4.0 Chart Control with SQL CE as back-end data base using Entity Framework. I will also show how Visual Studio 2010 SP1 provides new tooling supports for SQL Server CE 4.0. ASP.NET 4.0 introduced inbuilt chart controls features and Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Came up with nice tooling support for SQL Server CE. SQL CE is a free, embedded, lightweight database engine that enables easy database storage. This does not required any installation and runs in memory. Let’s see how we can place this together and create a small apps and deploy it using new “Web Deployment Tool” which is available with Visual Studio 2010 SP1.

ASP.NET Internals : Visualizing ASP.NET Page Life Cycle using IntelliTrace
Understanding the ASP.NET Page Life Cycle is an essential knowledge for developing ASP.NET Web Application. When request come from client to server there are many operations performed in backend before sending response to the client. When client request for some information from a web server, request first reaches to HTTP.SYS, which is the kernel level of IIS. HTTP.SYS then send the request to respective Application Pool. Application Pool then forward the request to worker process to load the ISAPI Extension which will create an HTTPRuntime Object to Process the request via HTTPModule and HTTPHanlder. Once request passed through the HTPP Pipeline, ASP.NET Page Life Cycle Start. You will find several articles that describes the What is ASP.NET Page lifecycle, what are the different events fired during page lifecycle. This post is something different, I will show you how you can see the each and individual Page life cycle events using IntelliTrace

Run “IIS Express” and “Cassini” simultaneously in Visual Studio 2010 SP1
IIS Express is a lightweight, self-contained version of IIS optimized for developers. IIS Express provides the power of IIS7.x while making it easy to develop and test websites. Why we say that it has power of IIS7.x because it runs on code base of IIS 7.5. Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Beta allows you to build and test web applications using IIS Express instead of the built-in ASP.NET Development Web Server (Cassini). If you want to use IIS Express with VS 2010, you have to install IIS Express separately on top of Service Pack 1. To know more about details of use of IIS Express, please read the post http://bit.ly/i8BN1H . We can set IIS Express as default Web Server for Visual Studio or We can also change from Project Properties. Well, In this post I am going to talk about how we run the both IIS and Cassini simultaneously for multiple projects in a single solutions.
